While I'm waiting for the layers of the small studies to dry, I'm prepping the smallest of the two panels I'll be working on. I can start layering the gesso on these before the small study is complete. Being patient and waiting for lots of thin layers to dry reminds me of why I started making drawings instead.

Used to be, Dallas Contemporary focused on just Texas artists. But then, used to be, Dallas Contemporary lived in a much different venue. Now housed in a larger, much more raw space--repurposed industrial quarters, actually, and one of the few like spaces in the US--the Contemporary has expanded its focus to, well...the title of the current exhibition should tell you: Here. There. & Beyond

Tomorrow nightSeptember 29th at 7pm Joan Davidow, curator of Here. There. & Beyond. will be talking at Dallas Contemporary about the show and here curatorial style.
